Hello All,
I am a High School Track & Field coach (and teacher) in a small city located in South Eastern Ontario, Canada. We are looking at purchasing a used landing system for our schools vaulters (presently have to travel to use the only one around for 45 miles). We would arrange to get it here. It is just a matter of price, traveling distance, and time to co-ordinate the move north. We are located two hours east of Toronto and around 3 hour drive to Syracuse, New York (if that gives you an idea of our location). We are willing to go up to 6-8 hrs away to pick it up. Please let me know if you have something that is worth going to get. We don't have a large budget (in Canada the coaches don't get paid a dime, Its all volunteer !!!) and are not necessarily after something that is up to current US high school standards. We just want to have a system that new vaulters could start on and progress to about 4 meters (13ft) max. Hopefully there is a school that is looking to get rid of theirs or already has upgraded and would like to unload the out dated version. Any information would be great.
Cheers,
Todd Crawford

Thank you for the information. Where are you located? Ohio is High in the middle and Round on both ends. ..Couldn't resist the OHIO reference.
